I'll start off by saying that this is really tasty. The first thing that I wondered when I saw this is why it was called Corn Whiskey instead of Bourbon. Bourbon Enthusiast
speculated a couple of years ago that they aged the whiskey in used bourbon barrels. I expect that they are correct. It looks like white wine in the glass, but it has some welcomed roughness of flavor. It is bottled at 95 proof, and I usually recommend cutting at that strength. This one is perfect neat. I've tried it in a julep and a Manhattan and feel that gets lost when mixed. Love it as a sipper.
Lots and lots of corn with some rough oak edges and heat in the finish. Recommended at $30.
